Sea turtles

How the sea turtles grow into an adult..

The sea turtles are endangered species and need a lot of help. How the sea turtles are endangered is because, there are lots of people around the world littering and throwing plastic rubbish, and plastic rubbish can kill or effect the turtles. How plastic rubbish kills turtles is that, the turtle chews on the plastic bags then they choke to death.

Turtles hatch a lot of eggs. Females can lay over two times in a season. They lay over 100 eggs, eggs hatch in sand, Over 800 hatch, 400 make it to the sea, 200 make it to breeding age. The eggs were covered with sand so they are protected. When they hatch they crawl away to the sea. While they are in the sea the babies are eaten by a variety of prey.

Adult turtles are sea turtles that are in charge of all baby turtles. The adult turtles are mature. They have babies and hatch babies from eggs. Some adult turtles go out into the ocean then return. Adult turtles and normal turtles have been alive for 15 million years.

Sea turtles have been around since 150,000 years ago. Sea turtles have been surviving through when, humongous dinosaurs run past them and over them. The turtles have survived through all those animals that have been stepping over them and also running through them. They have also survived through the challenges of eons. Every adult sea turtle has now overcome the odds.

When baby turtles are alive, what they do is swim forwards, somehow they would would often look to settle in a patch of flotsam. For the next several months they would avoid people that would kill them.
